The
Boys 9/10
This
will be full of spoilers. Last weekend I watched the new Amazon
series The Boys. I have read some of the comic book it is based off
of but did not remember enough about it to sit and watch this show
and complain about what was changed and what did not happen in the
comics. I was planning on writing a The Review about this but did not
wanna sit here and do a recap. Instead I am gonna list the 10 Reasons
Why You Should Have Watched The Boys. The only reason why I didn't
give this a 10/10 is because towards the end of the series things
started to lag a tiny bit and since I binged this it felt longer than
it actually was.
This
is about a group of people that want to take the superheroes of the
world down because for the most part they ain't shit. Publicly they
are amazing. They save people, avert disasters, make movies, and
sponsor great causes. Privately they do drugs, rape folks, and cause
hundreds of people to die for PR. As the series progresses it is
clear that there are no actual good guys in this world. Just people
who have better than others reasons to be assholes or not and
victims. This show has a fish man committing sexual assault, a tiny
man diving into a lady's vajayjay, a very religious hero that is all
the way gay but sponsors pray the gay away programs, and a beloved
hero that is jealous of a baby and the attention it gets. Its fucked
up and brilliant.
